Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment program who recognize how difficult and challenging methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals frequently revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment program which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further recovery services to deal with all addiction issues.
